My stay at this resort spa included some very mixed experiences. While the location was close to the beach and I enjoyed the pool facilities, the issues I faced with the room and service were quite disappointing. After dealing with problems such as a malfunctioning AC and issues with cleanliness, I expected better communication and support from the staff, but unfortunately, that wasn't the case.
Rooms

Initially, I had a lot of problems with the room, particularly with the AC not functioning and the floors being humid, which caused me to slip and fall. Although I was moved to a master suite after reporting my concerns, I believe more compensation was warranted for the troubles I faced.

The service was lacking overall. When I raised my concerns, I felt a lack of respect and responsiveness from the reception, and they didn't follow up on my health issues after check-out.

This hotel could use some serious improvements. While the rooms were spacious and came with a nice view, I faced persistent issues with the air conditioning that made my first night unbearable and my second night a slip hazard due to humidity. It's nice that they offered me a night in a master suite, but I really felt that three nights free would have been just. Unfortunately, the service left much to be desired, and the cleaning was quite unsatisfactory. Overall, it wasn't worth the price I paid, especially after the injury I sustained from the fall.

While the hotel had some redeeming features, my experience was overall disappointing.

However, the attentive service from some staff members was a highlight that I appreciated. The location was decent, but the dining experience failed to meet expectations, leaving much to be desired.

The room I initially stayed in was a mess with filthy floors and towels that had blood stains. After raising my concerns, I was moved to a master suite. However, the issues with the junior suite, including humid floors, made the first night unbearable. While the master suite was an improvement, it didn't compensate for the earlier problems.
